Nokia, Samsung, Sony and Toshiba, are working in a high-definition output on mobile phones

A new consortium of most major companies in the world of electronics, such as Nokia, Samsung, Sony, Toshiba and Silicon Image are working on a standard for connecting mobile phones or other portable devices to high definition screens.

The idea presented by the consortium MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) is a single cable for audio and video, with little pins and small size not to compromise the concept of portability, and capable of transferring video at 1080 lines in progressive format.

Another feature of the standard is that the portable device that serve as a source, take the current receiver through the cable (like USB). For instance, a mobile phone can play a movie on a TV screen regardless of battery you have.

Also take into account the protection of digital content through the implementation of HDCP compliant, according to the source of the news, on the first physical design developed by Silicon Image, the connector is compatible with the USB standard, making it easier to produce than a mini HDMI.
